Here in Spain its around 80. Starts of cool in the morning but by 1pm its hot hot hot. Still nice balmy evenings though. Hottest time here is August when it gets up to over 100, well last year it did, but its hit the high way before it usually does- Its hotter in the middle of Spain, They call it the melting pot and thats Madrid. All the big Companies close down for the whole of August, so forget trying to get any thing. This I think is what is called Global Warming.

It has been hot and humid the past couple of days, upper 80's near 90. A cold front passed through this evening and we should be dry and near 80 tomorrow and for the weekend. Give me fall weather any day. I do not like the heat anymore. I think I must have been a polar bear in a previous life! Oh, and the hot flashes are not helping any either!!!! :-D

Hi, we are in Oklahoma and its absolutely miserable here. Yesterday it was 98 with heat index of 107. I open the door and my air is shut off. Glad it was a little cooler today (about 5 degrees) as I had to take hubby in for surgery. He is home and fine. But right back up tomorrow. Electric bill will need help from my banker. haha

When dry, it lays flat and folds easily into your drawer or purse. But when soaked in cold water for about 20 min. they absorb the water and can be worn around your neck like a kerchief. I have several to go with many wardrobe changes as I work and they look nice as well as keep me cooler. I've even found them to be a benefit with my hot flashes. If you are interest I'll be glad to check on the name of the product they use inside, and send you the pattern. Easy to make, comfortable to wear and really helps keep you comfortable on those hotter then hot days. Can also be worn as a head band while working outdoors in the hot sun and keeps the perspiration from dripping down your face.
and could make them. the good ones to buy cost $23.95 for 2/w shipping. The ones at WM, the innards come right thru the fabic after a couple of uses.

I am so hot & tried of running the A/C & already a high elec. bill, I could just scream. Ya get out of the shower & before you get your makeup on & hair dried you are dripping sweat! Ugh! I am just cranky. I'm also in full agreement that those crazy hot flashes are for the pits! Why don't men have to enjoy those suckers? DH even asked me if I would like for us to go away to the Mountains somewhere for a few days. I asked him, "Where do you suggest, as it is just hot all over the darned place?" Yep I am just cranky & crabby. LOL I want FALL. Love that Season!
